Ensure that the user account trying to run Report Builder has "Read" and "Execute" permissions for the entire Oracle Home directory structure. On Linux, this involves running commands like chmod and chown to grant the appropriate user or group access to the files. On Windows, verify the security tab in the folder properties to ensure the active user has full read access. Conclusion
